Configuring recording
You can set the sound quality to use when recording.
Improving the sound quality increases the song size and decreases the recording time.
When making a final recording of a performance, it is best to use WAV 16 bit or 24 bit to
give priority to sound quality.
When making an audio CD, set the sampling frequency to 44.1 kHz and the recording mode to WAV 16
bit.
Test recordings and records of meetings do not usually require sound quality as good as
that. For longer recordings that give priority to song size, use MP3 128 kbps at 44.1 kHz.
Decide whether the sound quality or the recording time is to be given precedence, and
make the settings accordingly.
Sampling frequency
(Default value is bold)
Sampling frequency values
44.1 kHz
48 kHz
The larger value provides better sound quality.
When making a digital recording, the sound level is measured periodically, and that level is
made into a digital signal. The sampling frequency is a value that defines the time interval
and is expressed in kHz. A high sampling frequency is needed to faithfully reproduce high
sounds.
• Higher sampling frequencies result in larger song sizes and shorter recording times.
• When using the recording as an audio track for a video, we recommend setting the frequency to 48 kHz.
• The sampling frequency of a recorded song cannot be changed on the R-09.

■ WAV versus MP3
WAV songs (*.WAV) store all sound information without compression; MP3 songs (*.MP3)
store songs using compression. Consequently, WAV songs have a better sound quality
recording than MP3 songs. On the other hand, MP3 reduce data volume by removing
frequencies that are hard for the human ear to hear.
When recording with MP3, the song size is smaller than the WAV setting recording, and a longer
recording can be made.
■ bps and bit
The higher the value, the better the sound quality.
The MP3 bps is the bit rate unit (bits per second).
The bit rate indicates data transfer rates in number of bits sent per second.
The WAV bit is used to represent the size of a sample.
The sample size indicates the amount of precision used in capturing subtle changes in the
sound. Larger sampling size values allow for more details of the sound to be expressed, and
result in sound that is smoother and more natural.
• Higher bps and bit values result in larger song sizes and shorter recording times.
• Software such as Windows Media Player cannot play back 24 bit WAV files.

Adjusting recording levels
The R-09 is designed to record a wide variety of sounds, but it can also make high-quality
recordings when a recording level (volume) appropriate for the sound to be recorded is set.
Level settings should be the highest input level (volume) that has no distortion. This principle
is the same for both the [Internal Microphone] and external microphones.

Point the microphone used for recording.
Point the R-09 microphone toward the target for recording.

Level Button] while the sound is playing.
Volume
High
Low
The level meter indicates when louder sounds are being recorded
by growing toward the right. Adjust by pressing [Input Level
Button] to allow for the loudest recording.
However, the input volume is too loud when the [PEAK Indicator]
lights up.
When the [PEAK Indicator] is lit, the input volume has reached the
maximum input volume that R-09 can record (clipping status), and
any louder sounds cannot be recorded with the current volume
setting. The resulting recording will be severely distorted.

Use the [Input Level Button] to adjust the volume so that the [PEAK Indicator] does not light up even
when the loudest sound is produced by the target. Doing this prevents clipping during the loudest
parts of a song or during instrumental passages played fortissimo.
Once the level is set, press the [REC Button] once more to start recording.
• Press the [STOP Button
] to stop recording and return to the <Main Menu>. Because the level
settings are saved, press the [REC Button] again to start recording with the same input level.
• Some noise may be heard when the input level is being adjusted with the [Input Level Buttons]. This is

Recording from cassettes or CDs
The R-09 can be used for recording instrumental performances and taking voice memos, but
it can also be used to record cassettes or CDs using the [LINE IN Jack].
If a device or cable is connected to the [LINE IN Jack], input from the microphones is disabled. Therefore,
it is not possible to mix microphone and line input during recording. If there is sound input via both the
[LINE IN Jack] and the [MIC Input Jack], only the sound from the line input is recorded.
This example describes recording from a CD player to the R-09.

Applying reverb effects during playback
The R-09 can apply reverb effects to the song being played.
Such reverberation simulates the experience of being in a hall or on stage.
REVERB is an effect that can be used to, for example, make it seem as if the sound were being played in a
large hall.
Sounds with applied reverb cannot be recorded. Reverb cannot be applied while monitoring recordings.
Reverb type
Set the reverb type. Various spaces can be simulated by changing the settings.
Type
Hall1
Hall 2
Room
Plate
Effect
This reverb effect simulates the reverberation in a concert hall.
A mild reverberation with a long, spreading sound is obtained.
Hall 2 has shorter reverberation than Hall 1.
This reverb effect simulates the reverberation in a room.
A short, bright reverberation that simulates a live stage is obtained.
This reverb effect simulates plate reverberation (a reverberation unit using vibrations
from metal plates).
A metallic-sounding reverberation with an extended high range is obtained.

Troubleshooting
This section provides tips on solving problems that may occur.
Problems during recording
The recording only plays on the L channel (left)
• If using an external microphone, check whether the microphone is set to stereo or monaural.
If the microphone is a monaural one, only the L channel (left) is recorded.
To record both channels using a monaural microphone, set the microphone type to “MONO”
using the [EXTERNAL MICROPHONE TYPE Switch].
“EXTERNAL MICROPHONE TYPE switch” (p. 9)
Recording won’t start
• Check the amount of space available on the memory card.
Recording is impossible if there is less than 16 KB available. Recording standby cannot be
entered either.
“Estimated recording times” (p. 28)
Can’t use the microphone
• When using the [Internal MIC], do not connect anything to the other input jacks. If a
microphone, cable, or device is connected to the [MIC Input Jack] or [LINE IN Jack], the
[Internal MIC] cannot be used.
“MICROPHONE INPUT jack” (p. 8), “LINE IN jack” (p. 8), “Using the internal microphones” (p.
29)
• When using an external microphone, please connect to the [MIC Input Jack] only. If a
microphone, cable, or other device is connected to the [Line In Jack], then the input from the
[MIC Input Jack] is ignored.
“MICROPHONE INPUT jack” (p. 8), “LINE IN jack” (p. 8), “Using external microphones” (p. 33)
• When using an external microphone, make sure to choose the settings appropriate for the
microphone being used.
“Set the type of microphone being used.” (p. 35)
• Is a phantom powered microphone connected?
The R-09 does not support phantom powered microphones.
The recording is distorted
• Sound becomes distorted if the input level is too high. Set the input level to an appropriate
value.
“Adjusting recording levels” (p. 37)

Troubleshooting
Recorded files cannot be played back.
• If an adaptor is mistakenly unplugged or a card is removed during recording, files can get
damaged, making it impossible to play them back. The file repair feature can be used to
repair such files.
“Repair Files (Repair)” (p. 70)
Can’t record
• Recording is not possible if there is insufficient remaining time. The remaining recording time
is shown in the display in recording-standby mode. There is no remaining time if 00:00:00 is
shown. Check the amount of free space on the memory card.
“Estimated recording times” (p. 28)
• Recording is not possible if the memory card is not inserted properly. The display shows “No
Card” when the memory card is not recognized. Turn off power and re-insert the memory
card.
“Inserting” (p. 17)
• If the memory card is not formatted, the memory card is not recognized, and the display
shows “SD unformatted.” Format the memory card.
“Formatting” (p. 19)
• Recording is not possible if the write protect (LOCK) feature is turned on. Unlock the write
protect feature.
“SD Memory Card” (p. 20)
• Recording cannot be performed correctly if the input level set with the [INPUT LEVEL buttons]
is too low. Set a proper input level.
“Adjusting recording levels” (p. 37)
• When using an external microphone, connect it properly to the [MIC Input Jack]. Also check
the [EXTERNAL MICROPHONE TYPE Switch] settings.
“MICROPHONE GAIN switch” (p. 9)
• Memory cards must be formatted on the R-09 to operate properly. Memory cards formatted
on a PC may have the wrong format type. In these cases, the recording may stop
immediately after starting, or a proper recording may not be possible.
“Formatting” (p. 19)
A stereo song is created although a monaural microphone was used
for recording.
• The R-09 records in stereo. Even if a monaural microphone is connected and the [EXTERNAL
MICROPHONE TYPE Switch] is set to “MONO,” a stereo song with the same sound
recorded on both the L and R tracks is created.

Troubleshooting
Problems during playback
There’s no sound
• The sound may not be heard if the output volume is too low. Increase the output volume
gradually.
“(+) and (-) HEADPHONE VOLUME buttons” (p. 7)
• Check if the headphones or speakers are connected properly.
“Basic connections” (p. 42)
Can’t play songs
• Check if the song name is correct. Songs beginning with a “.” (period) cannot be used on the
R-09.
• The R-09 can only play songs with the.MP3 or .WAV extensions. Also, corrupted songs
cannot be played.
“Song types that can be played” (p. 55)
“Changing the name (Rename)” (p. 66)
“Message list” (p. 90)
The wrong song is played
• The song playback mode may be in shuffle play (SHUFFLE). In this mode, the R-09 randomly
selects the next song to be played. Change the setting to normal play (SEQUENTIAL).
“Setting the song playback mode (Play Mode)” (p. 77)
“Shuffle play” (p. 50)

Troubleshooting
Miscellaneous problems
The power won’t turn on
• Check if the AC adaptor is properly connected.
If using batteries, make sure the batteries are inserted correctly in the correct orientation. The
batteries may also be low, so have new batteries on hand.
“Turning power on/off” (p. 14)
• If the R-09 still does not turn on even though there is no problem with the AC adaptor or
batteries, the unit may be damaged.
The PC won’t recognize the R-09 even after connection
• The PC will not recognize the R-09 if there is no memory card inserted. Check if a memory
card is inserted if the R-09 does not appear on the PC desktop.
“Inserting” (p. 17)
Pressing and holding down the [FINDER/MENU Button] does not show
the <Menu Screen>.
• While playing, recording, or in recording standby, pressing and holding down the [FINDER/
MENU Button] does not make the <Menu Screen> appear.
First, stop playback or recording, then press and hold down the [FINDER/MENU Button].
The display darkens
• When running on battery power, the display may darken when there are no operations,
depending on the Display Timer settings.
“Setting the time until the screen is darkened when no operations are performed for a set
period of time (Display Timer)” (p. 81)
The power turns off suddenly
• If no operations are performed for a set period of time, the power may automatically turn off
according to the Auto Power Off settings.
“Setting the time until the power turns off when no operations are performed for a set amount
of time (Auto Power Off)” (p. 83)
• When using batteries, the power will turn off if the batteries are low. Replace with new
batteries.

Troubleshooting
The settings disappear
• If all the settings in the <Menu Screen> are restored to factory defaults, the R-09 may have
been accidentally reset to factory defaults. Please reconfigure the settings.
“Initializing the R-09 (Factory Reset)” (p. 89)
The R-09 is connected to the PC with a USB cable, but the PC doesn’t
recognize it
• The PC will not recognize the R-09 if the connection is made while the <Menu Screen> is
showing or during playback or recording. First, disconnect the USB cable connecting the R09 to the PC, and then try again.
“Connecting to the PC” (p. 56)
Displaying the song name is slow when selecting a song
• This problem may be caused by a corrupted song, illegal song format, unsupported MP3
format, a song that is too large, or a song with an .MP3 or .WAV extension that is taking
time to verify on the R-09 as playable.
These conditions cause the display to be sluggish when selecting a song.
“Song types that can be played” (p. 55)
Feedback occurs when monitoring with headphones
• If open air headphones are used to monitor recording, feedback may occur if the
headphones are too close to the R-09. The R-09’s internal microphones are capable of
picking up even the faintest of sounds, so do not move too close to the R-09.
The internal clock resets
• The internal clock takes power from the AC adaptor or batteries to operate when power is
turned on. When the power is off, the internal clock will run temporarily on the power stored
in the unit, but if the power is off for several days, the internal clock settings return to the
original settings (initial status). When power is turned on in initial status, the message “Clock
Initialized” is shown.

USING THE UNIT SAFELY
The
symbol alerts the user to important instructions or
warnings.The specific meaning of the symbol is
determined by the design contained within the triangle.
In the case of the symbol at left, it is used for general
cautions, warnings, or alerts to danger.
Used for instructions intended to alert the
user to the risk of death or severe injury
should the unit be used improperly.
Used for instructions intended to alert the
user to the risk of injury or material
damage should the unit be used
improperly.
The
symbol alerts the user to items that must never
be carried out (are forbidden). The specific thing that
must not be done is indicated by the design contained
within the circle. In the case of the symbol at left, it
means that the unit must never be disassembled.
001
• Before using this unit, make sure to read the
instructions below, and the Owner’s Manual.
..................................................................................................
002c
• Do not open (or modify in any way) the unit or
its AC adaptor.
..................................................................................................
003
008e
• Use only the attached power-supply cord.
Also, the supplied power cord must not be
used with any other device.
..................................................................................................
009
• Do not excessively twist or bend the power
cord, nor place heavy objects on it. Doing so
can damage the cord, producing severed
elements and short circuits. Damaged cords
are fire and shock hazards!
..................................................................................................
011
• Do not allow any objects (e.g., flammable
material, coins, pins); or liquids of any kind
(water, soft drinks, etc.) to penetrate the unit.
004
• Never use or store the unit in places that are:
• Subject to temperature extremes (e.g.,
direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, near
a heating duct, on top of heat-generating
equipment); or are
• Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet
floors); or are
• Humid; or are
• Exposed to rain; or are
• Dusty; or are
• Subject to high levels of vibration.
..................................................................................................
007
• Make sure you always have the unit placed so
it is level and sure to remain stable. Never
place it on stands that could wobble, or on
inclined surfaces.
..................................................................................................
008c
• Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied
with the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage
at the installation matches the input voltage
specified on the AC adaptor’s body. Other AC
adaptors may use a different polarity, or be
designed for a different voltage, so their use
could result in damage, malfunction, or electric
shock.
..................................................................................................
..................................................................................................
012b
• Immediately turn the power off, remove the AC
adaptor from the outlet, and request servicing
by your retailer, the nearest Roland Service
Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as
listed on the “Information” page when:
• The AC adaptor, the power-supply cord, or
the plug has been damaged; or
• If smoke or unusual odor occurs
• Objects have fallen into, or liquid has been
spilled onto the unit; or
• The unit has been exposed to rain (or
otherwise has become wet); or
• The unit does not appear to operate
normally or exhibits a marked change in
performance.
..................................................................................................
014
• Protect the unit from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)
..................................................................................................
103
Please Read This Section
• Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts
within it (except when this manual provides
specific instructions directing you to do so). Refer
all servicing to your retailer, the nearest Roland
Service Center, or an authorized Roland
distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.
..................................................................................................
The ● symbol alerts the user to things that must be
carried out. The specific thing that must be done is
indicated by the design contained within the circle. In
the case of the symbol at left, it means that the powercord plug must be unplugged from the outlet.
USING THE SAFETY
* Material damage refers to damage or
other adverse effects caused with
respect to the home and all its
furnishings, as well to domestic animals
or pets.
R-09_e.book 104 ページ ２００７年２月１３日　火曜日　午後３時２７分
015
• Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to
share an outlet with an unreasonable number
of other devices. Be especially careful when
using extension cords—the total power used by all
devices you have connected to the extension cord’s
outlet must never exceed the power rating (watts/
amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive loads can
cause the insulation on the cord to heat up and
eventually melt through.
..................................................................................................
Please Read This Section
016
• Before using the unit in a foreign country,
consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland
Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor,
as listed on the “Information” page.
..................................................................................................

108b
• Before moving the unit, disconnect the AC
adaptor and all cords coming from external
devices.
..................................................................................................
104
• Carefully follow the installation instructions
for batteries, and make sure you observe
the correct polarity.
• Avoid using new batteries together with
used ones. In addition, avoid mixing
different types of batteries.
• Remove the batteries whenever the unit is
to remain unused for an extended period of
time.
• If a battery has leaked, use a soft piece of
cloth or paper towel to wipe all remnants
of the discharge from the battery
compartment. Then install new batteries. To
avoid inflammation of the skin, make sure
that none of the battery discharge gets onto
your hands or skin. Exercise the utmost
caution so that none of the discharge gets
near your eyes. Immediately rinse the
affected area with running water if any of
the discharge has entered the eyes.
6
• Never keep batteries together with metallic
objects such as ballpoint pens, necklaces,
hairpins, etc.
..................................................................................................
112
• Used batteries must be disposed of in
compliance with whatever regulations for their
safe disposal that may be observed in the
region in which you live.

IMPORTANT NOTES
291a
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page p. 103, please read and observe the following:
Power Supply: Use of Batteries
301
302
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long
hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a
cause for concern.
303a
• The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the
unit’s power consumption is relatively high. Should
you prefer to use batteries, please use the alkaline
type.
360
• Depending on the material and temperature of the
surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet
may discolor or mar the surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber
feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so,
please make sure that the unit will not slip or move
accidentally.
Maintenance
401a
304a
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry
cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with
water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft,
dry cloth.
307
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of
any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration
and/or deformation.
• When installing or replacing batteries, always turn off
the power on this unit and disconnect any other
devices you may have connected. This way, you can
prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or
other devices.
Placement
351
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other
equipment containing large power transformers) may
induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the
orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from
the source of interference.
352a
• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
352b
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the
vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when
receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing.
Should you experience such problems, you should
relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater
distance from this unit, or switch them off.
402
Repairs and Data
452
• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s
memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs.
Important data should always be backed up on your
computer, or written down on paper (when possible).
During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of
data. However, in certain cases (such as when
circuitry related to memory itself is out of order), we
regret that it may not be possible to restore the data,
and Roland assumes no liability concerning such loss
of data.
Memory Backup
503
• If the unit's power is not turned on for several days the
contents of certain items you've set, such as the date
and time, will be lost.
354a
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near
devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature
extremes. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the
unit.
105
Please Read This Section
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off
the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is
being used by an electrical appliance that is
controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator,
washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the
way in which the electrical appliance is used, power
supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may
produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a
separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply
noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.
355b
• When moved from one location to another where the
temperature and/or humidity is very different, water
droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit.
Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to
use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using
the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours,
until the condensation has completely evaporated.
R-09_e.book 106 ページ ２００７年２月１３日　火曜日　午後３時２７分
Additional Precautions
551
• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be
irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the
improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself
against the risk of loosing important data, we
recommend that you periodically save a backup copy
of important data you have stored in the unit’s
memory on your computer.
552
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the
contents of data that was stored memory card once it
has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no
liability concerning such loss of data.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Please Read This Section
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the
unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when
using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can
lead to malfunctions.
554
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
555
• A small amount of noise may be heard from the
display during normal operation.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp
the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way
you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the
cable’s internal elements.
Before Using Cards
Using DATA Cards
704
• Carefully insert the DATA card all the way in—until it
is firmly in place.( p. 17)
705
• Never touch the terminals of the DATA card. Also,
avoid getting the terminals dirty.
708
• Memory cards are constructed using precision components; handle the cards carefully, paying particular
note to the following.
• To prevent damage to the cards from static
electricity, be sure to discharge any static electricity
from your own body before handling the cards.
• Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact
with the contact portion of the cards.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong shock
or vibration.
• Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed
vehicles, or other such locations (storage temperature: -25 to 85˚ C).
• Do not allow cards to become wet.
• Do not disassemble or modify the cards.
Copyright
851
558a
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the
unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to
use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned
about those around you (especially when it is late at
night).
• Unauthorized recording, distribution, sale, lending,
public performance, broadcasting, or the like, in
whole or in part, of a work (musical composition,
video, broadcast, public performance, or the like)
whose copyright is held by a third party is prohibited
by law.
559a
853
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the
box (including padding) that it came in, if possible.
Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging
materials.
562
• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If
using some other make of connection cable, please
note the following precautions.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this
unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level
to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.
• Depending on the conditions in which you use the R09, you may notice a slight sensation of discomfort or
roughness when touching the R-09 itself or a metal
part of a connected mic. This is due to an extremely
small electrical charge which poses absolutely no
danger to the human body. If this bothers you, you
can use the R-09 on battery power as desired.
• Do not use this unit for purposes that could infringe on
a copyright held by a third party. We assume no
responsibility whatsoever with regard to any infringements of third-party copyrights arising through your
use of this unit.
